Vinyl Stencils Baby Edition

Just wanted to share what I have been doing with those vinyl stencils. My sister is having a baby boy soon, so I made her a onesie with a tie and a graphic of a giraffe, and then another onesie with his name on the bum. He will be so cute! Can't wait to see them on him!

Want your own baby onesie tie? Be sure to order through our custom vinyl design center and specify what size onesie you will be using.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Here is a picture of Lalia in one of her new shirts that we made using the vinyl stencils. This one was painted using regular fabric paint.

Mood Blocks

I loved being able to alert the family if my mom is having a bad day. The saying is true, "If Momma ain't happy, then nobody happy." These queues are essential when you know you should have done your chores a couple days ago, now today is the day to do them, before you are asked.

Just kidding, but these are always fun to play with because you can choose which parent it applies to. You could even customize them to have different children's names, different moods, or maybe even different emotion faces.

They can be found in the new “Crafts” section.

Fabric Paint with Stencils

Rather than making a graphic t-shirt with a bleach pen, you can use fabric paint. Fabric paint comes in so many different packages and a safe way to paint on fabric is to go slow and use a foam brush. Again this is very kid friendly as long as you monitor how much fabric paint is used (you don't want to slather too much on).

By the way, all paint and bleach will bleed to the other side of the t-shirt unless you place cardboard or another thick object between layers of fabric.

Next time we will talk about another type of fabric paint. Fabric Spray Paint!!

*Note: When ordering, it does not matter which color vinyl you use, so might as well choose a color that is discounted like red, yellow, or green.

Vinyl Stencils

Last week we tried out using stencils on t-shirts and other types of fabric. Slowly we will demonstrate the different methods we used and the results we achieved.

Today, the photos shown show using a stencil and a bleach pen .By the way, all paint and bleach will bleed to the other side of the t-shirt unless you place cardboard or another thick object between layers of fabric.

A good benefit is that it is a good project to do with your children, as long as they are old enough to color in the lines, of course.

Stencil on Canvas

Here is a fun and easy project that your kids will love!

What you need to do:

• Think of words that describe your child and even ask them about their favorite things.

• We will create a unique stencil with the words that you came up with.  Check it out here.

• Apply the vinyl stencil to your canvas.  It worked best to rub a damp cloth over the transfer tape.

• Let your child create a masterpiece with the paint!
